• Champion Non-Profit Insurance Options: We will clear the regulatory hurdles to allow local non-profit and member-owned insurance models to thrive. By realigning incentives toward patient health rather than shareholder dividends, we can lower monthly premiums for middle-class families.

• Reduce Public Plan Dependency: Our goal is a marketplace where private and non-profit options are affordable enough that fewer Texans need to rely on public safety nets. We will strengthen the "backstop" for small businesses, empowering them to provide quality coverage that keeps their employees independent of government-subsidized plans.

• Fiscal Accountability: Taxpayer-funded subsidies should be a bridge, not a permanent destination. By fostering a competitive environment where non-profits drive down prices, we protect the state budget and ensure our public resources are reserved for those who need them most.

Every Texan deserves a neighborhood where their family can thrive without fear. We will combine military-grade discipline with common-sense reform to modernize our justice system.

• Clear the Backlog in 45 Days. We will prioritize funding for state forensic labs to eliminate the DNA and evidence backlogs that keep dangerous offenders on the street and delay justice for victims.

• Enforce Real Accountability. We must impose mandatory minimums for the theft of firearms and enhance penalties for those who fuel the fentanyl crisis in our communities.

• The Result: A Texas where "safe streets" is not just a slogan, but a reality backed by a fully resourced and transparent justice system.

We will return public tax dollars to public schools and build a direct pipeline from our classrooms to high-paying Texas careers. Success shouldn't require a four-year degree or a government handout; it requires a fair shot and the freedom to organize for a better life.

• Unions, Not Socialism. In Texas, we believe in the dignity of work. I support private-sector and public-service unions because they are the ultimate expression of the free market, workers negotiating for the value of their own labor without government intervention. Unlike socialist "top-down" mandates that stifle growth, unions empower the capable to secure their own future, ensuring that taxpayer-funded safety nets remain reserved for the truly vulnerable who cannot help themselves.

• Empowering the Pews, Not the Paperwork. Our churches and non-profits are the "first responders" of the Texas community. I will fight to eliminate the red tape that prevents faith-based organizations from providing childcare, housing, and disaster relief. By stripping away burdensome state regulations, we allow those who know their neighbors best to decide what is best for their community, moving the power from Austin back to the local parish and non-profit board.

• Trade Schools Over Vouchers. I will move to block billionaire, backed voucher schemes that drain our neighborhood schools to subsidize private tuition. Instead, we will redirect those funds into Technical & Vocational Pipelines. By fully funding institutions like TSTC and expanding high school trade certifications, we ensure our kids graduate ready for the workforce, not just a desk.

In Texas, we believe in rewarding those who contribute. If you serve our children, protect our streets, or work a lifetime to own your piece of the American Dream, the government shouldn't stand in your way with ever-increasing tax burdens.

• Credits for Community Pillars. We will fight for targeted property tax deductions for our teachers, first responders, and active-duty military. Keeping more money in the pockets of those who build stable neighborhoods isn't just a reward for service—it’s an investment in our local economies.

• Incentivizing Responsible Homeownership. Voters who invest in preventive maintenance to keep their neighborhoods strong deserve a break. I support tax deductions for homeowners who take initiative in property upkeep, ensuring that "responsible citizenship" is a smart financial move for every Texan.

• Total Tax Relief for the American Dream. Once you’ve worked a lifetime to pay off your home, you shouldn't have to "rent" it from the government. We will move to eliminate property taxes for paid-off homes and for our retired military, ensuring economic dignity and housing security in your golden years.

When our neighbors are in need, our churches and non-profits are the first to answer the call. It’s time to get the bureaucracy out of the way and let our community institutions lead.

• Unleashing Faith-Based Service. Our churches shouldn't have to navigate a maze of paperwork to feed the hungry or house the struggling. We will strip away unnecessary bureaucratic barriers, allowing faith communities to serve our most vulnerable as soon as the need arises.

• Action Plan: Empowering Non-Profit Insurance. We will remove the red tape that protects for-profit insurance giants from true competition. By empowering member-focused, non-profit insurance organizations to step up, we will bring down costs through community-driven models that prioritize people over dividends.
